Robert Powell III was born with an amazing, natural ability to make people laugh. He got his start in comedy at the Funny Bone in Shreveport, Louisiana. Credited with saving comedy in Louisiana, Robert went on to become a household name in just about every location he visited.

In 2005, Powell became the official opening act for the Rickey Smiley and Friends Tour. Since then, many doors have opened, and his comedy career has reached new heights. In just a span of a few years, Powell has already performed alongside well-known comedians such as Red Grant, Cedric the Entertainer, Steve Harvey, D.L. Hughley, JJ Williamson, Scruncho, Kevin James, and Suli McCullough.
